Fairbank of Provo City, Utah, arrived here to- night on tne Atlas liner Andes from South American ports. He was a mem- ber of a party of nine which set out from Provo City to obtain specimens, alive or dead, of the fauna and tlora of Central | and South America. Others of the party | fell sick and some of them were targets | for rebel bullets in the southern portion | of Colombia when “they attempted to reach the coast in order to seek thelr way home. ine party left twenty months ago, all on horseback, to coliect animals, birds, | pelts and piants for the Brignam Young | Academy. After exciting adventures tney reached Mexico and proceeded to the in- | terior of tne country. In Guatemaia four | of the adventurers were stricken with fever and taken to Port Lisaon.

Again the band split, and two who sought .o go down the west coast, intend- ing to reach Valparaiso, were targets for | revel sharpshooters atter they had been | warned by rebel officers. Finally all bu!‘} Fairbank succeeded in reaching the | coast and there found an avenue of es- | cape. All suffered from disease contract- | gd under the intense heat of the tropical | sun. Fairbank proceeded up the Magdalex\n\5 River about 400 miles and stayed with a | planter until a chance offeréd itself a month later to get to Santa Marta, where he took the steamer Andes for New York. | Fairbank said that although he has trav- eled thousands of miles and endured al- most untold hardships the trip was a success from a sclentific standpoint.

PITTSBURG, Dec. 24.—The car short- age in the Pittsburg district is worse than ever before, and as a result many mills are shut down or only in partial operation. All of the mills along the Allegheny Valley road, including the Car- negie City mills, have suspended, and it is probable that the big Carnegie Com- pany plants at Homestead and Duquesne will be unable to resume for a week or ?00;9 after the Christmas holiday shut- n. President Schwab during his recent visit here said $3,000,000 worth of finished products was piled up in the yards of these two concerns, with no present pros- pect of removal.

Governor Shaw before leaving the city discussed the acceptance or ection of the Secretaryship of the Treasury with several friends, who asserted that he is in doubt in regard to accepting the place in case it shall be tendered.

Major Sears has been assigned to command the second battalion of engineers, now serving in the Fhilippines. o i 1 i . \, OR /flr A : Ll 1 L ASHINGTON, Dec. 24. —The Cabinet was in session a little over an hour to-day. Practically no business was transacted, the whole time being occupled in felicitations of the sea- son. The President did not mention the fact that he had tendered the Treasury portfolio to Governor Shaw of lowa at the meeting, but privately talked with Secretary Wilson about the matter, the latter expressing the opinion that Gover- nor 8haw would accept, Whenever Gov- ernor Shaw 18 ready to assume the duties of the position, Secretary Gage will turn over the administration of the treasury to him. Secretary Gage has not yet an- nounced his plans for the future If Governor S8haw goes into the Cabinet the question has been ralsed as to whether Seoretary Wilson, who also comes from Towa, will remain, On this point a Cabl- net officer Is quoted as saying that the President particularly desires that Sdere- tary Wilson shall continue in the Cabinet. His work in the Department of Agri- culture is highly appreciated by the farm- ers of the country and the President does not desire to lose him. Governor Leslie M. Shaw, who has been offered the Treasury portfollo, and who is now on his way to Washington, is ex- pected to arrive here early to-morrow morning. The general impression among Jowa public men in this city is that Gov- ernor Shaw will accept the portfolio. DES MOINES, Iowa, Dec. 24.—Governor Shaw departed last evening for Dubuque, Iowa, where to-day he conferred with Senator Allison and Speaker Henderson. ‘When a reporter called upon him he BRITAIN WILL LOSE N AANK Serious Commercial Con- ditions Confront the English. WASHINGTON, Dec. 24—There is a large and ever-increasing number of thoughtful and well-informed people in Great Britain who express the serious be- lef that if radical changes do not come about in the near future the United King- dom will be relegated to the third position in the rank of the world’s trade and com- merce. This statement s made by United States Consul Boyle, at Liverpool, in his annual report, extracts from which were made public to-day by the State Department. it is conceded, says Consul Boyle, that in manufactures, Great Britain, within the last few years, has failed to meet the competition of the United States and Ger- many. Bol}ile says the optimistically inclined plead exceptional and marvelous natural advantages as far as the United States is concerned, while, as to Germany’s fierce competition, the unsatisfactory financial and commercial situation now prevailing in that empire is cited as an instance of a country booming itself too rapidly. The cry of “‘Something must be done,” says the Consul, is going up from commercial bodies, political speakers, economic writ- ers and the newspapers. There are fears expressed, says Boyle, that even in the carrying trade the supremacy of Great Britain is threatened. When the war in South Africa is over, he says, there is to be a popular demand for legislative ac- tion and the indications are that the British Government will be compelled to give more earnest consideration to mat- ters relating to trade and commerce. There is a strong sentiment among the masses of Great Britain, and one which appears to be galning strength ‘as time goes on, in favor of bringing about what has become poflularly known as ‘‘fair trade,” and which, says Boyle, is nothing but reciprocity. Protection, he says, is not very much advocated, but it is signi- ficant that many of the most widely cir- culated papers of Great Britain are now boldly advocating a policy of “fair trade,’” or “do to others as they do to you.” Against this sentiment, however, the Con- sul says, must be set the national dislike to change established institutions, of ‘which free trade is one of the most funda- mental. - In regard to educational reforms in the United Kingdom, Boyle says that the uni- versally acknowledged inferiority of Great Britain to most of the leading nations. particularly the United States and Ger- many, is given frequently as one of the chief reasons why Great Britain is being outstripped in her manufactures. The subject of education, he says, is a very thorny one in England. Efforts are now being made by the respective authorities who was murderously assaulted by her son a few weeks ago, the latter commit- ting suicide after he thought. h: had killed his mother, died to-day. She uever ! knew of hes son’s ending and never re- ined consclousness long enough io tell ::w the assault was committed. to secure uniformity of methods and re- sults, while raising the standard at the same_time. A particularly interesting portion of SECRETARY AGRICOLTUR MAN WHO WILL SUCCEED GAGE, AND A CABINET MEMBER WHO MAY RETIRE. d— = ol L R R R R R R R R TIPS places the American far to the fore. Eng- lish manufacturers, he says, find it almost impossible to get the same amount of product from machines as Is obtained in Amnerica. The small extent to whicn up- to-aate labor-saving machinery is used in Great Britain, as compared with America and even Germany, Boyle says, is a fiult- ful tople of discussion. English manu- facturers, he says, are handicapped by reason of antiquated plants. STRIKE OF MACHINISTS MAY SCON BE SETTL Four Hundred Men in Chicago Are Likely to Return to Work. CHICAGO, Dec. 24.—It is stated that the machinists’ strike in Chicago, which has inyolved 400 union workmen since it start- ed seven months ago, is about to be set- tled. Conferences are now being held be- tween leaders on both sides and it is ex- pected that an agreement will be reached anA ratified within the next few days. It is sald the Allis-Chalmers Company has agreed to return to the nine-hour day, which' leaves the question of wages, the 'strikers to be taken back and the dis- position of the men who took the strikers’ places to be determined. The union men have dismissed their conspiracy charge recently entered against W. J. Chalmers. It is sald that the strike so far has cost the Allis-Chalmers Company $300,000 and the union $30,000 in carrying on the fight, to say nothing of the heavy loss in wages. The strike, while a local affair, has been regarded as a test of strength between the International Assoclation of Machin- ists and the Metal Trades Assoclation. e s — o Paris’ Christmas Toy Fair. PARIS, Dec. 24—The Christmas toy fair held along the boulevards of Paris presented its customary aspect this year. The booths were attractively decorated, but the unceasing rains completely marred the usual street enthusiasm. The midnight masses in the churches were well attended, while revelers filled the many cafes and restaurants until an early hour in the morning. Madame Lou- bet, wife of the President, presented Christmas gifts to the servants employed in the Elysee palace and their children. She afterwdrd attended the Fete of Al- sace-Lorraine, held in the winter circus, where toys and clothing were distributed from the great Christmas tree to 6000 children of indigent exiles from the lost province. Shoots Wife and a Stepson. PEORIA, Ill, Dec. 24.—At Yates City last evening August Iceburg, a prosper- ous farmer, sixty-nine years of age, liv- ing at Farmington, shot his wife through the abdomen and then shot his fourteen- year-old stepson, who interfered. Walk- ing seventeen miles to the home of his daughter, Mrs. Davis, near Farmington. he shot himself through the head and died in three hours. His wife is dying but the boy will recover. His wife had left him because he had deeded property to his son and he shot her because she had refused to return to him or let him get a divorce. sl Silversmith Commits Suicide.

CINCINNATI, Dec. 24.—The Enquirer’s Gallipolis special says the discovery of a manuscript in a secret drawer of an oid clock reveals a secret of the French court and shows the reason of the visit to that city in 1789 of the Duke of Orleans, after- wards Louis Philippe of France. The discovery was made by Claude M. ‘Wall, while taking apart an old French clock which has long been standing in the storage-room of his store. He found a secret drawer in the clock which con- tained an old parchment manuscript in French, wrapped with a child's flannel skirt richly embroidered and bearing a mopogram. A plece of fine lace was also with the manuscript. Upon translation the manuscript pur- ported to be a ‘‘true history of Adele d’Alonquon.” It bore the signature of Louis d’Alonquon and was dated Octo- ber 15, 1789. It was addressed to Adele, apparently to be given her when she grew to maturity. The substance of it was that Adele was the daughter of the Duke of ;Orleans. The mother died at the child’s birth, ignorant of the rank of its father. The writer was then placed in charge of the child and sent with it to Gallipolls, where there was a French colony. The story ram that he became her pre- ceptor, and finally, after the visit of the Duke of Orleans to Gallipolis, it was de- termined to send Adele to a Catholic school in France, The mother of Adele not being of royal blood, the marriage was kept secret. Wall has sent the manuscript 0 the French Embassador at hington. Some portions of the papers giving names and lineage have not been made public. FRAUD, HE 3AYs, WA3 COMMITTED Sensational ChargeMade Against Mother and Daughter. Question of the Ownership of Land Causes the Lawsuit. NEW YORK, Dec. 24 —An alleged fraudulent transfer of a Kansas farm valued at $15000 is the charge brought against Mrs. Minnle McGoy and her daughter Lulu McCoy of Chicago, who gwel.red before a magistrate here to- ay. The two women were arrested here yesterday on complaint of Charles Mc- Coy, who claims that his sister, named Lulu M. McCoy, is the rightful owner of the land and that the Lulu McCoy named as defendantnade use of the similarity o2 names to transfer lands in which she had no rightful interest. Joseph M., McCoy of Phillips County, Kansas, the original owner of the land, died In 1889 and left 160 acres of bottom land to his daughter, Lulu M. McCoy. Up to two years ago she had no doubt but that the land was still in her posses- |, slon, although managed by another. In 1899, however, a ‘personal” stating that | *“1f Miss Lulu McCoy will correspond with | Joseph Coftey of Woodruft, lowa, she will learn something to her advantage,” ap- | peared in a Chicago paper. | Charles McCoy alleges that this adver- | tisement was answered by Mrs. Minnie | McCoy, anl that as a result a’transter | of the land to Coffey was signed by Mrs. | McCoy's daughter, Lulu. Mrs. McCoy | told the police, it Is said, that Coffey paid | her daughter 3546 for the deed. Through | Coffey, it is sald, the land was sold to | O. S. Wing of Hamburg, Iowa. 'Wing reached Chicago_yesterday with ex-Congressman N. B. McCormick, his attorney. Wing sald he was acting in good faith and that he gave Coffey $900 to get the signature of Miss McCoy to the deed, supposing that the rightfui | owner alone would be found bearing that | name. Mrs. Minnie McCoy is credited with as- serting that she had no reason to belleve | that the land might not have been willed | to her daughter as she had relatives in | Kansas. Mrs. McCoy and her daughter declare their willingness to transfer to ‘Wing 160 acres of land in Michigan to re- | imburse him if it is found that the Kan- | sas farm should be transferred back to | the other Lulu McCoy. A continuance in | the hearing until January 3 was taken in order to bring witnessess from Kan- sas.

They have neglected to stop the leak in time. ‘While scientists are puzzling their brains to find out the use, each indi- vidual can by a littie precaution avold the chances of contracting dreaded and da gerous kidney trouble, or eradicate completely from their it ystem if already afflicted. Many precious lives might have been, and many more can yet be saved, by paying attention to the kidneys.
